Wade Klauer developed core gameplay systems for the gmuGADIG/DEADSHOT repository over a three-month period, focusing on persistent save functionality, enemy AI, and combat mechanics. Using GDScript and the Godot engine, Wade implemented a resource-based save system to enable cross-session state restoration, along with a temporary UI for validation. He designed and integrated new enemy types, including a bird swarm with homing projectiles and a bandit with autonomous AI and audio feedback, enhancing gameplay variety and immersion. His work demonstrated depth in 2D/3D game mechanics, resource management, and audio integration, establishing a robust foundation for future feature expansion.

For 2025-10, delivered two core gameplay updates for gmuGADIG/DEADSHOT with clear business value and robust execution. Key features delivered include Bird Swarm Enemy with projectile attacks, homing projectiles, attack cooldown, a self-destruct timer, and a damage interaction box to enable richer combat interactions. Also implemented Gun Firing Cooldown to prevent rapid-fire and enhance balance. Major bugs fixed include stabilized homing projectile behavior, ensured reliable self-destruction timing, and corrected damage-box interactions, improving reliability in combat scenarios. Overall impact and accomplishments include expanded enemy variety and gameplay balance, improved player experience and retention, and establishing a solid foundation for future enemy designs. Technologies/skills demonstrated include gameplay systems design, AI/physics interactions (homing, cooldown, damage box), debugging and incremental delivery, and strong Git traceability through explicit commits.
